Can you form a rule that can generalize this linguistic phenomenon?（南开大学 2010研)（分数：2

9、.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：In English, there is a rule that /p/ is unaspirated after /s/ but aspirated in other places. So /p/ in pat, tap is aspirated but unaspirated in spat since it is after /s/. To bring out the phonetic difference, an aspirated sound is transcribed with a raised “h“ after the symbol of th

10、e sound. So a phonetic transcription for peak is p h i: k and that for speak is spi: k. So p, p h are two different phones and are variants of the phoneme /p/. Such variants of a phoneme are called al-lophones of the same phoneme. The allophones are said to be in complementary distribution because t

11、hey never occur in the same context: p occurs after s while p h occurs in other places. We can present this rule as: /p/p/s_ p h elsewhere(note: _is the position in which /p/ appears) In addition sometimes a phoneme may also have free variants. The final consonant of tap may not be realized by some

12、speakers so there is no audible sound at the end of this word. Such phenomenon is called free variation.)解析：2.What are the criteria used in phonetic description of vowels?（厦门大学 2010研)（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：As the vowels can not be described in the same way as the consonants, a system of cardinal vowel

13、s has been suggested to get out of this problem. The cardinal vowels are a set of vowel qualities arbitrarily defined, fixed and unchanging, intended to provide a frame of reference for the description of the actual vowels of existing languages. The cardinal vowels are abstract concept. The cardinal

14、 vowel diagram is a set of hypothetical positions for vowels used as reference points. The description of English vowels needs to fulfill four basic requirements:(1)the height of tongue raising(high, middle or low);(2)the position of the highest part of the tongue(front, central , back);the length o

15、r tenseness of the vowel(tense vs. lax or long vs. short);liprounding(rounded vs. unrounded). For example, i: : high, front, tense, unrounded vowel. u : high, back, lax, rounded vowel.)解析：Complete the words with suitable negative prefixes.(四川大学 2007研)（分数：20.00）(1).rational（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：ration

18、sleads, shortened, unhappier, fearlessly(b)In which of the following examples should the “ a“ be treated as a bound morpheme: a boy, apple, atypical, AWOL（上海交大 2005研)（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：(a)misleads; mis-, -s shortened; -en, -ed unhappier; un-, -er fearlessly; -less, -ly (b)Among these examples, the

19、 “a“ in “atypical“ should be treated as a bound morpheme.)解析：4.In English, the suffix “-able“ as in “X + able“ means “able to be X-ed.(1)Use an example to illustrate this rule.(2)What kind of words can function as “X“?In words like “unthinkable ,“ the suffix-able means more than “ able to be X-ed. “

20、 Think of TWO more words of this type.（南京大学 2007研)（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：(1)applicable, which means “able to be applied“. (2)The words that can function as “X“ are probably verbs. unbelievable, undefeatable.)解析：5.What can this rule mean in English grammar? D(-id)/(t)(北师大 2004研)（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Thi

21、s rule reveals two points; first, it shows one possible allomorph of the morpheme D , and this allomorph has the phone(-id)as its element; second, it shows the according phonetic environment in which that allomorph can occur, that is, it will be pronounced as(-id)when it appears after the phone(t).

22、In this rule, the arrow means the realization, and the bar indicates the environment of the target element.)解析：6.What are phonologically conditioned and morphologically conditioned form of morphemes?（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Some phonological factors can affect the appearance of morphemes, namely, the fo

23、rm of a morpheme ; and there could be assimilation, and dissmilation. For example, the negative morpheme could be realized as “in-“ or “im-“ followed by different phonological environments, as in “inefficient“ and “imperfect“ , as a result of assimilation. Morphemes can also be conditioned by morpho

24、logical factors; for example, the allomorphs of the plural morpheme, as could be seen in “oxen“ , “cows“ , and “feet“.)解析：7.Analyze the morphemic structure of the English words gentlemanliness and unlockable, using a labeled tree diagram to illustrate the morphemic structure of the word under analys

26、grams in the analysis of sentence structures?(西安交大 2008研)（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：The tree diagram can not only reveal a linear order, but also a hierarchical structure that groups words into structural constituents. It can, in addition, show the syntactic category of each structural constituent, thus i

27、t is believed to most truthfully illustrate the constituent relationship among linguistic elements.)解析：解析：（本题考查用树形图分析句子结构的好处。)Please rephrase the following sentences, to disambiguate them.（分数：10.00）(1).Tom and Mary saw the mountains while they were flying over.（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：While Tom and Mary
